This is the file structure for my project.
Since this is for learning, I have used 4 positive images and 10 negative images.
perl createsamples.pl positives.txt negatives.txt samples 4 "opencv_createsamples -bgcolor 0 -bgthresh 0 -maxxangle 1.1 -maxyangle 1.1 maxzangle 0.5 -maxidev 40 -w 40 -h 30"
This is the perl script to generate sample vec files.
I merge them using this mergevec.py file.
I read in this tutorial that -w and -h should be in the ratio of the positive images.
My positive images are 480 X 360.
Thus my perl script has -w 40 -h 30 as args.
opencv_traincascade -data classifier -vec sample.vec -bg negatives.txt -numStages 3 -minHitRate 0.999 -maxFalseAlarmRate 0.5 -numPos 4 numNeg10 -w 40 -h 30 -mode ALL -precalcValBufSize 1024-precalcIdxBufSize 1024
On running this , I get
===== TRAINING 0-stage =====
OpenCV Error: Assertion failed (_img.rows * _img.cols == vecSize) in get, file /build/opencv-SviWsf/opencv- 2.4.9.1+dfsg/apps/traincascade/imagestorage.cpp, line 157

I get this ouput on running opencv_traincascade
PARAMETERS:

Why does it show 24 in sampleWidth and sampleHeight and what should I do to successfully train.
Thank you.
